Objections Overruled; SA System Unchanged Aiter careful inquiry, the student at- ialrs committee passed a resolution con- cerning the Student Advisor system. it recommended iirst that the program be directed in philosophy. training. alld budget by an advisory board composed of two student advisors, two students. Mr. Haas, Mr, Obermiller, Mrs. Low. and one assistant dean. it further emphasized that student ad- viser-s are Counselors. not drseiplinarians. and that this should be made clear both to the student advisors and t0 the resi- dents oi their halls. The committee voted 473 to retain the present salary oi 3203 per year. Early next year. it plans to conduct a more thorough evaluation and review oi the program's control. salaries, etc. This action is the result oi a much broader proposal in.tiated by the three student members or the committee. The original plan called for separation oi the advisor program from its present ties to the Dean's Office. The students asked lor an autonomous program, directed by a governing board similar to the advi ry board outlined above. The committee, however, felt that the success or the ad- visory group at this time was dependent upon maintaining essentially the same format. The three representatives of SGA. Tom Thomas, Heather Foote, and Lee Maul, also clashed with the other members or the committee on the question .0! salaries. The students had asked that salaries be abolished. Again using the rationale that it was necessary to main- tain the status quo one more year. the committee decided against the change. The students then opted for a compro- mist or cutting the salaries to 5100. thus nosing $7,000. It was also proposed that the committee recommend that these iunds be redirected, in part. to iiirance an extended speakers program related to the student advisors’ training, Mrs. Low stated that she ielt this unwise, as there could be no absolute guarantee that such funds would be used as the commit- tee wished. Tom Thomas, SGA President. com- mented that he ielt “the committee has only postponed a decision that must again be considered using little more in- iormation than is presently available." Though somewhat disappointed with the resultant recommendation, Thomas add< ed. “I feel the establishment of an inn dependent budget controlled by a joint committee is a significant step to creat- ing student control oi the advisory pro For School or Typewriter Supplies Grinneii Office Supply Amrs from the Post on co GRINHELL. IOWA ) Hearing Continued from Page 1 and Bruce Nissan, '70. both refused to iy. Giddins read a statement declin- ing to testiiy. since he had not been ad~ vised as to Whether or not he would be a defendant. Aitei‘ the state told him that they would grant him immunity. he said that he was not iamrliar with legal procedures. and wished to consult with an attorney. He was then excused from testifying. Nissan said that he would not testify on the grounds that his testimony might tend to incriminate him, and was then excused, Dean Alice LOW could not attend Wednesday's hearing because she was leaving town. By calling her secretary. Mrs. Oda calleson, as a Witness, the state attempted to enter as evidence Mrs. an's signed statement concerning conversations She had had with two of the deiendants. Mrs. Calleson testified that she had typed the statement for the Dean. The defense objected that Mrs. Law was not present to be cross— examined. and the typed statement was theieioie not admitted as evidence Three other students. SGA President Tom Thomas, '70. James Lew, ’70. and Deslonde Lamb, ’69. also testified. Their testimony, plus that at Schem and Spell established that three of the defendants were nude during the Gates Hull discus- sloll. Because no one testified with abslr lute certainty that the defendant Sarah nanranu had completely disrobed, De~ sense Attorney Johnston made the mo« tiou that the information against her I)! dismissed. Johnston also made a separate motion that the charges he dismissed against all (our defendants since the testimony of all the witnesses indicated only that there was nudity, and not “indecency." Johnston said that the “statute does not punish disrobing, and does not punish nudity.” He emphasized that no evidence or any obscene or lewd actions had been presented at the hearing. in reply to Johnston's second motion Justice 0! the Peace Lincoln Said. “the court will not rule on what is lewd and obscene." He then overruled the motion, Concerning Miss Hermann, he ruled that “because no evidence was brought up that could be classed as indecent exA posure.” the charges against her would be dismissed. He then said that he would refer the case to district court, and re lease the deiendants on their own recog- nizanee. No date has been set {or the trial at District Court. } Election Continued mm Page i attendance at the campaign speeches given in halls. \ The tour candidates presently in the race. which began on Fri. Feb. 21. are John Herr, Jim Lew, Keith Petersen. and Mark Allen. Candidates gave their pro posals in campaign speeches presented to an audience oi about i50 students in ARI-I Monday night. A few differing areas of major con- cern have made themselves felt in each candidate‘s platiorm. Jamie Trotter. who withdrew from the race on Wednesday, began his campaign-with the ideal or "the creation of an academic atmos— phere." John Herr and Jim Lew both stressed proposals ior increasing the communication between student govern- ment and the student body. Mark Clit- ford Allen defined the role of student government to exclude curricular reiorm and social pressure: “it is not to pass resolutions and sit around as a 2nd late debating society, but to iiod people. put them on committees and make sure the committees work." Jamie Trotter. who withdrew “be- . cause I am interested ill a different system through which to channel my efforts", gave his support to Jim Lew, who has also stressed the idea that stu- dent government should have a voice in curricularutialrs. In meetings in the halls. Lew suggested that students have a legitimate right to question iaculty de- cisions on certain mallers, such as tho tiring oi proiessors.
